ROYAL
WELCH FUSILIERS
The Royal Welch Fusiliers have a distinction that is unique amongst the
British Army, and that is the right to wear the 'Flash' of five black
ribbons on the collar. It is a relic of the days when soldiers wore pigtails
which, because of the grease, were enclosed in what was known as a 'queue
bag'. In 1808 when the Army abolished pigtails the Regiment was serving
in Nova Scotia, Canada and refused to comply with the order.
